Day 221 — Morning mingle : Main shelter
[Wake up and smell the lack of coffee. You're on a bunk bed. Maybe you're a top and maybe you're a bottom. There are five other people in your room. Maybe they're friends or enemies or faces you barely recognize if at all. It doesn't matter much. You can leave this room and you don't need to come back to it.

You should get your rations though. You're probably hungry. You're definitely a little sluggish of body. What happened to that bruise you got sparing yesterday? What happened to your newly dyed hair? Mystery, mystery... Move along. Find the public bathrooms and do your business with a hundred of your closest friends.

Find the kiosk and get your rations. Careful not to let anyone steal them. You won't get more until tomorrow and the bots won't care. They aren't here to hold your hand. If you get sick or hurt and they deem it necessary they will take you to the hospital whether you wish it or not. But why dwell on such things? You're here now and you might as well enjoy it. You even get a free day today.]

(OOC: OOC info. This mingle takes place in the Main shelter over the morning hours.

[ the first thing piter notices as he unfolds from a bottom bunk is that he is neither dead nor dying. both are stellar developments, as far as he's concerned. he isn't terribly enthused by anything else, though, especially not the sluggishness that refuses to leave him or the new and thoroughly abhorrent wardens. all the same, he knows that he must adapt. he's done it once before, after all.

his first order of business isn't showering or finding new clothes or picking up rations. it's finding spice— and he quickly realizes that in squall, there is none to speak of.

he'll be spending the rest of the day exploring and trying to resign himself to the fact that he may die here.

[Buffy is out doing much the same thing. She's trying to learn as much about this new place as possible as quickly as possible. She catches sight of Piter exploring and though she doesn't know him, she figures the mutual exploring is reason enough to say hello.]

And in days that are sucktastic...this one is climbing the scale.

[ saying hello to piter tends to be a thing that people end up regretting, but he isn't in a state to be too terrible at the moment. he rounds on her somewhat sluggishly, narrowing his eyes as if trying to discern whether or not she is a threat. after a moment of scrutiny, he relaxes a bit and nods in agreement. ]

Indeed. It is not often that I would rather find myself in Marina.

[ she's not a threat, not really. Especially powerless. She's capable of being a threat powerless, but it takes planning and a fear for her life. ]

It's kind of a topsy-turvey sort of feeling.

[ tilting his head upward to stare around at their surroundings, he lets out an affirmative noise. ] The network of these prisons must be quite vast... this makes a third, does it not? [ three too many. he doesn't like this. not one bit. ]

Perhaps they'll begin torturing us. What fun! [ absolutely humorless over here. piter is supposed to be the one torturing prisoners, not the prisoner being tortured— and he definitely considers being without his spice a form a torture. ]

And sign up for which alternative? The line to the work camps, or the line to the hostile deepsea monstrosities? [ a smirk. "sucktastic" was definitely an appropriate descriptor here. ]

[ Piter may not be at the top of the list of people Reid feels a need to check up on, but he did make it onto the list in the first place. By the time Reid approaches, he's had a chance to wash up, change his clothes, get something to eat and even strike off a few more important names on that list of his. ]

Looks like we both made it over.

[ by the time reid finds him, piter is a bit worked up. it's been weeks and weeks since he had to fret about spice and his upset shows faintly in his eyes, in the wideness of them and in the tight set of his jaw.

reid hasn't snuck up on him, but all the same piter doesn't notice him or parse his speech quickly enough to conceal those subtle tells, to pretend that nothing is wrong or that he isn't acting abnormally. it's already getting to him, he realizes. his reaction time is already suffering. with every dose he simply grows more tolerant of the drug— and less tolerant of withdrawal.
]

Indeed. [ with cold calculation, he fixes his expression and turns to face reid fully. ] Have any been lost?

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]thisiscalm

None that I've noticed.

[ And the one he did notice was lost before they were shipped off to prison take three. Let's not mention that. It's already in the past, so much so that he can't help but notice those subtle tells even in this stressed out state. ]

...Are you alright?

I am fine.

[ — and immediately he is berating himself for saying that too quickly, too harshly, too obviously. is the lie clear in his eyes, his face, his body? he straightens a bit, head tilted arrogantly upward and shoulders no longer sagging with fatigue, but unconsciously, his tongue darts over his lips. ]

[ It is pretty obvious, especially knowing what he knows. Of course, it could be something else — fatigue, discomfort from the events of the morning, migraine... but his mind immediately jumps to one conclusion. ]

Withdrawal? [ Softly. Quietly. This stays between the two of them. ]

[ there's a tense moment of silence that he fills by simply staring at reid, eyes dark and cold. a part of him hates reid for knowing.

when he speaks, his voice is equally quiet, but imbued with a sort of distance and frigidity, as if trying to keep all of this at arm's length.

[ He knows that tone of voice. Might've even had a version of it himself at times, although his was a fair bit shakier. Speaking of, there's the slightest of trembles working its way into his as they speak. Disbelief. Fear. ]

They wouldn't do that... would they? They wouldn't just... let you die.

[ piter can sense the fear in reid's voice all too well, and finds it somewhat out of place; it's still strange to think that reid has some kind of misguided care for him. it's strange and unwelcome to think that anyone would. ]

Perhaps they presume it recreational. Perhaps they presume that I continue to take it because I think it amusing. [ bitterness creeps into his voice, thick and poisonous on his tongue, and he lets out a soft, hoarse chuckle. these many years have hardly been fun. ]

[You know what Piter needs? A human innovation machine to come up with some way to make what he needs. And luckily this one can't be nerfed by silly things like superpower restrictions! If there's a possible way, Lacus could find it.]

[Plus, she's actually in a much better mood than when they last spoke; things seem to have worked themselves out.]


Piter, good day. Are you quite well? [Because he... doesn't really look it, and in more ways than the rest of them look not quite well.]

[ piter would rather not see her, but he really would rather not see anyone today— or, more accurately, he'd rather they not see him slipping into such a state. ]

Perhaps not quite well, but well enough. [ he is quite sure that lacus needn't know of his greatest weakness— even tyki and spike remain in the dark— so he offers her a smile. ]

That's understandable, given our surroundings. They seem to have quite a scant view of basic survival needs. [She's not impressed with the lack of hair brushes or other hygiene items.] Cooking was next to impossible without my spice rack. [Which Lena wrote out before she realized how hilarious it was, I promise]

[ i might have actually laughed omg

piter is keenly aware of that unintentional pun, though not at all amused. he'd scowl about it, but that would make his predicament a bit too obvious.
] I haven't yet eaten. Are what meager rations they give us at least trustworthy? [ food poisoning doesn't sound so hot to him, especially not today. ]

They're edible. Rather bland, but it could be worse. Mine went down well after a bit of work in the kitchen.

Do you cook? [She's often surprised by what people can do, so she doesn't presume either way.]

I've had little reason to cook in the past. [ before marina, that is. living in a keep with scores of slaves was quite a convenient arrangement, despite the fact that most if not all of them would have liked for their masters to die horribly. he raises an arm in a dismissive wave. ] Servants, you know. [ he usually wouldn't have had the time to cook for himself, anyway; there were times when he hardly even had time to eat at all. ] But I assure you that I will manage.

I have no doubt that you'll adapt. [Someone as brilliant as Piter would have adjustment issues, perhaps, but he'd find a way.] So surely you wouldn't consider my offer to assist in any way a mark against my confidence in you.

[ somehow, it's the mundane things like cooking that seem more difficult to adjust to. being passed between planets is something he's had to do many times before, but doing simple, menial things feels odd. ]

I would not. [ all the same, he's uncomfortable. he's uncomfortable with anyone trying to assist him, trying to sneak into his life, his privacy, those intimate, human moments of his life that he doesn't like to dwell on. ] Are you indeed offering to assist?
